I would like to access the creation date of a DNG file, SomeImage.DNG. In Windows Explorer, under View > Details, the “Date” column lists the correct creation date, which I happen to know. But when I try to access the creation date from different tools on the command line, I get the modification date which is when I copied and unzipped the file. I only get the modification date from the Windows command line CMD using “dir /T:C SomeImage.DNG”, and using bash from Cygwin, “stat -c “%w” SomeImage.DNG”. Using “exiftool -CreateDate SomeImage.DNG” is too slow because the file is large.
From the command line, how can I access the “Date” that is displayed in Windows Explorer?
